    my new ship

    ok...
    i've been looking around for a ship...looked alot...found a "novi",a nova scotia lobster boat...it's an old school rig,it's a "glass over",epoxy and glass over double planked...boat's solid as a rock,she needs a little make up...

    power ??? yep,it's got power...a mighty powerful 4-53 detroit natural ...a whopping 140hp !!!

    it's gonna be a ripper !! should steam along at a blazing 10-12kts !!!

    it's got full hydraulics,including a 14" hydraslave pot hauler and wagner engine driven hydraulic steering...

    should be in my shop tuesday...

    check out the video...

    The next bite on a jig.
    Looks like a boat that a guy could have a long term love affair with. Keep us up to speed.
